This event is hosted by the LGBTQ Mental Health and Inclusion Center as an opportunity to hold an open discussion about the many inequalities faced by the LGBTQQIA community. We will have a question box two weeks before the event at Adler's Cafe as a way to provide anonymity to any questions. This will be an opportunity for Adler students and faculty to ask questions and learn about the LGBTQQIA community and how to serve as a better ally for the community and clients. Pizza will be provided for the event, come and join us to learn more about what you can do to become socially aware practitioners.

The Social Exclusion Simulation is a group experiential learning tool for increasing understanding of complex systems and how the structural barriers that comprise them work to block access to key rights, resources and opportunities for some members of society, rendering them “socially excluded.”

2.5 C.E.U.’s will be offered to psychologists, counselors, social workers, marriage and family therapists, and interested non-psychologists. Please indicate this on your reservation request.

Participants include students, faculty and staff of the Adler School, members of the greater Chicagoland community, anyone interested in learning more about social exclusion. Participants adopt authentic Chicago-based case histories of formerly incarcerated women and are tasked with re-entering society – finding a place to live, a job, healthcare and other necessities – in the face of structural and systemic barriers.

Participant outcomes include:

An increased understanding of what structural and systemic barriers are and how they work to undermine opportunity and access.
